I used the Stampin’ Up! Happiest Of Birthdays stamp set and the Forever Fern stamp set bundle to create a birthday card to share with you today.
My card design was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #454.
The stitching on my card was inspired by As You See It Challenge #235.
I started by adhering a panel from the In Good Taste DSP to the front of a Gray Granite card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Then I cut a panel of the Forever Greenery DSP with one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies and I adhered it to a panel of Pretty Peacock card stock and then to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.
I looped a length of gold cord from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack and adhered the loops with Glue Dots to the card front. I stamped the sentiment from the Happiest Of Birthdays stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then cut around it with one of the Tasteful Labels Dies. I adhered the die cut sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped the greenery image from the Forever Fern stamp set in Pear Pizzazz ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then cut around it with one of the Forever Flourishing Dies. I adhered the die cut with Glue Dots to the label and then added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel to finish the card front.
I stamped the sentiment from the Best Year stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then added a strip of the In Good Taste DSP to finish the inside of the card.
This card was super quick to put together so I made a few more with different background designer paper panels!
